Profile Video File Server Installation

Connecting 8 Analog and 8 Digital Channels (PAC 208)

Figure 2-17 shows analog/digital audio connections for a 16 audio channel Profile
Video File Server using the PAC 208 version of the PAC 200 Profile Audio Chassis.
The PAC 208 chassis allows you to connect eight analog and eight digital (four pairs)
audio I/Os to the Profile Video File Server. ASPB audio channels 1 to 8 are always
assigned to PAC208 analog channels 1 to 8. ASPB audio channels 9 to 16 are always
assigned to PAC 208 AES/EBU digital channels 9 to 16.

When used in this configuration, the PAC200 is labelled PAC208 on the left side
panel at the rear of the panel.

NOTE: When using analog audio, you must use Configuration Manager to enable
analog audio inputs and to unmute analog audio outputs. See the Profile Family
User Manual for Configuration Manager information.

On the PAC200 (PAC 208):

• Connections are for analog audio channels 1-8, each with an In and Out.

• Connections are for four pairs of digital audio channels: 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, and

15/16, where each pair has an In and Out.

• The AES REF IN connector provides both a clock frequency and a framing

alignment reference, generally from a master sync generator, to the incoming
digital audio.

• The MONITOR LEFT/RIGHT connectors allow monitoring of one pair of audio

selected through software (see the Profile Family User Manual). This is an analog
output.
